Beast looks like Shun, right? I think so anyway, with his hair like that. So Kousuke acts like a girl when heâ€™s Beast to hide his identity from Granny. Thatâ€™s interesting. Whatâ€™s more interesting is how THIS episode has taken the bad taste out of my mouth. If the rest of the show is like this Iâ€™ll be satisfied. We had an interesting Gate. We learned more about one of 6 recurring characters. There were callbacks to earlier episodes. There were stakes involved and it was funny. But what do I really think?
_________________________________________________________________

Nitou realizes the error of his ways and his heart is filled with fire when he sees the tender love with which his Granny has always treated him. We get some actual teamwork between the Wizards and outside of Battle use for the magic. Overall an interesting episode.

Kamen Rider Wizard 26 Sneaking Into School for Super Hero Time dated: 03-10-2013

Nitou IS A PIG. Apparently. Rinko is as frustrated with men as I am with this show. Shunpei and Haruto seem to be as lost regarding the identity of the girl with Medusa’s face as I am about the quality of this show I once thought was FANTASTIC. What is going on here?

Another change has occurred in the show's direction! Rising from a rock quarry somewhere in Japan after falling through outer space the unKamenCast is back. Joining me are @Mewzard/ Colton Clayton of Podcast Sentai Power Rangers and @Grimmhelm/ Anthony Bishop of Toku Strike. Now with more than double the power of the previous incarnations the unKamenCast-RX! - the cure for the common Rider show- is here to protect all living things!

Subject Kamen Rider Wizard episodes 13 The Film Director Returns â€“ 27 Sisters for Super Hero Time up to 03-17-2013

Kamen Rider Wizard brings hope to Gates every (other) week in his fictional Universe, saving from the Despair brought on by Phantoms, and he is always winning, but what about in our Universe? Souma Haruto and his Band, as well as the evil they fight are supposed to entertain us every week. Join us as we throw Wizardâ€™s second arc on the table and evaluate episodes 13-27 and the measure of growth of the characters found there in. Nowâ€¦ itâ€™s Examination time!

Colton and Anthony join me in the Rider Cafe as we speak with Claire about sexism in Kamen Rider. Claire was referenced in an episode of Igadevilâ€™s Rider Break! about her awesome Tackle article. I read it and wanted to find out how it feels to be in her pumps while enjoying Karate Bugman action.

Kousuke gets an upgrade and so does the writing for the most part. This arc features call backs, bringing up plot threads that have been ignored and even goes some places viewers have been wanting. Hyper Beast debuts and shows us how Ancient Magic can make you a rhinestone cowboy! Anthony is out this episode, sorry to all those who love hearing that British accent.

Join me in the Rider Cafe as I speak with Tom Constantine about fansubbing (A LOT of Super Sentai and some yet to be announced) Kamen Rider. Tom is the founder of Grown Ups In Spandex and has been fansubbing for YEARS. Thanks to @Mewzard and @illusClaire for submitting some questions!

Subject Kamen Rider Wizard 30 The Day The Magic Died & 31 His Tears which aired 04-07-2013 & 04-14-2013

Haruto loses his Magic for the sake of Legion, whose favorite actor is Russell Crowe, getting to have an â€œEXCITING!â€ experience. Nitou mans up and fights for Haruto. Koyomi dies, but sheâ€™s ok. Medusa gets a shocker and Mewzard and I get into some speculation.

Grimmhelm, Mezard and Pez discuss the new rumor posted by DecaEnd and Orends Range, from 2chan, which is that the Philosopherâ€™s Stone is central to the summer movie which plays an integral part in the story overall. Listen as we explore the other aspects of the rumor theorize based on the show so far what we could be seeing, as well as itâ€™s effects on the rest of the Wizard.

Listener question: Why was Dragon white and shiny? Has he changed? He seemed nicer when he appeared to Haruto. What are your thoughts?

As someone who's been following you since the Sweet Nothings days just wanted to say I have really enjoyed the new unKamenCast. Peeps looking for another rider focussed podcast should really check this one out.

FIRST! YOU MUST LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE (unless you haven't watched the these episodes, in which case you should watch them to get some of the subtle references and idiosyncratic comments found here in)! You will find unexpected Ishibashi appreciation... and tangents... and references... abounding as Mewzard and Pez discuss the Potgoblin Hobgoblin arc. Friendship is tested as greeed consumes and twists men to love MONEY more than anything else, and that's just what happens with the hosts!

The W episodes are being put on delay, but they should be well worth the wait! In the mean time, make your self some kale chip, turn down the lights and shut off your brain because the show is about to begin! Grimmhelm is stuck behind some dimensional wall trying to get his tech situation in order while Mewzard and Pez discuss the clash of Super Sentai and Kamen RiiiIIIDDER (Decado!!!) in the legendary Super Hero Taisen via audio commentary.

Subject: Kamen Rider Wizard 34 The Model’s Dark Side and 35 Another Side of Sora, which aired 05-05-2013 & 05-12-2013

Love him or hate him Sora turns a corner quite the unexpected corner as we learn about his past and he offers a glimpse into his dark future. The show really feels like it is trying to build momentum for a big finish. Could this be the start of Wizard's redemption? Listen in and find out what Mewzard and Pez think.

Listener question to be answered and discussed on episode 012: Do you like Gremlin? Why or why not? How could he be better?

Kamen Rider W is held up as one of the best Kamen Rider series. Is it? The three hosts discuss the merits of the show as its story unfolded Doublet by Doublet. One of us loves it, one of us is sour on it and one likes it alright; listen in to hear us explain ourselves and count up our sins!

Subject: Kamen Rider Wizard episodes 28 -35 GENERALLY, 36 and 37 The Myna Bird Speaks and The Fugitive’s Despair, specifically, which aired 05-19-2013 & 05-26-2013 and the series thus far! As well as the new scans for Kamen Rider Wizard in Magic Land and the first few episodes of the Fourth Quarter! Grimmhelm, Mewzard and Pez analyze the plot and character development in this third Quarter as well as how the series ranks for them at this time.

Listener question answered and discussed this week: Do you like Gremlin? Why or why not? How could he be better?

Subject: Kamen Rider W 13-26. Claire, Grimmhelm, Mewzard and Pez once again count up Wâ€™s sins and some of the showâ€™s Mitzvot too! We get deep into discussing Kirihiko, Wakana, Saeko and Terui, as well as where the mystery could be going. Do you have the courage to hear our judgments?

Listener Question to be answered on episode 014: Haruto protects our Hopes, but what are your Hopes for Haruto and the others in this last leg of the show?

Faulty alarm clocks, exceedingly slow British Internet and lack of preparation at the unKamenHQ for any sort of disaster, real or imagined, have swirled into an unexpected cocktail of aural narcotics. This tincture of the ear, if youâ€™ll excuse my metaphor, will deliver NOT ramblings, NOR rantings, and certainly NO GEEKING ON about the topics found here in, which are varied. Grimmhelm and Pez invite you to be participants in drug trial of sorts. We hope none of you have a negative reaction to the Wizard in Magic Land news, Fourze versus W talk, the philosophical discussion about viewing order, the well spoken yet unintelligible â€œspoilersâ€ about Decade and anything else we may have thrown into this discussion, including some fan interaction. We have no insurance. Please sign the waiver.

Next week, 06-21-2013 we will have our discussion of Wizard 38 and 39. W Q3 will be 6-28-2013

Subject: Kamen Rider Wizard episodes 38 Stolen Hope and 39 What He Forgot on the Field which aired June 2, and June 9, 2013 Both Written by: Head Writer Tyusoshi Kida

The end of the series is nigh, and NOW we get more information on Haruto from before he became a Wizard? Oh, and Wajima gets a visit from the White Wizard, the former Gate (we can assume) known as Fueki. Is this all too little to late or well timed and placed?

This was an exciting â€œquarterâ€ to be sure. A lot of development happens in these episodes, we find out that the Sonozakiâ€™s are part of (or are) Museum which is working with a mysterious group called foundation X which is financially supporting their Dopant development. Dr. Isaka and Saeko make their moves against Ryuube. Terui gets the chance to break through the despair over the loss of his family and Shotaro faces himself and fights to rise above his limitations. What did Grimmhelm, IllusClaire, Mewzard and Pez think of all this? Listen in as we count up Wâ€™s sins!

Listener Question to be answered on episode 018: Do you buy Terui Ryuâ€™s transformation from big jerk to cool secondary Rider What about it did you love, or hate and what would you have changed?
